Theatre of the Mind is a popular German book series that offers relaxing, thought-provoking and enthralling movie-length novellas, with a reading time of anywhere between 60 and 180 minutes (50 to 110 pages).

They’re perfect for all of those daily interludes: a trip on the train, the bus, the car or a plane, the hours spent in waiting-rooms or at the hairdresser’s, on your coffee-break or during an afternoon at the beach, before turning out the lights at bedtime, or simply “in-between.”

They’re all you need to fill 1, 2 or 3 hours in a most entertaining way.

Because the reading-times are virtually the same as the length of the average movie, they’re great for couples or groups to read aloud to each other—and to switch off the TV for a change. Don’t let the tube and the big screen monopolize your leisure time: reach for a Theatre of the Mind story instead, and create pictures, from the sentimental to the thrilling, on the world’s greatest silver screen of all: your fantasy! It’s story-time for adults.

Theatre of the Mind specializes in short novels. You’ll find a complete listing here of every book that’s appeared so far through Theatre of the Mind Publishers. Every one of them offers you an extensive sample excerpt—as well as a three-minute segment from the audio-book version.

Every novella is available in both Kindle eBook and audio-book format; many can also be purchased as paperbacks. What’s more, groups of stories that fit into a given genre are also available as anthologies in different formats.

Sorry that this Homepage is completely in German, except of this article and the descriptions of the translated books, but we thought it's not a good idea to create a full-service homepage, containing only a few books available. As soon as several books are translated, we move this domain to their own place to be.
